Answer:
The two numbers are 245 and 1029. You want the largest number that divides the two numbers leaving a remainder of 5 in each case.
First subtract 5 from 245 and 1029 to get
245 - 5 = 240.
1029 - 5 = 1024,
Next find the HCF of 240 and 1024. To do that find the prime factors of the two numbers:
240 = 2x2x2x2x3x5 = 2^4x3x5
1024 = 2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2x2 = 2^10
Thus the HCF = 2^4 = 16. So the answer is 16.
Check: 245/16 = 30 + 5 remainder
1029/16 = 64+ 5 remainder
